Smitten Slipper
The first of the slippers is finished up. I find myself quite smitten. I also find myself completely unable to take an attractive picture of my own foot while sitting on my back porch in my pajamas in the rain. Perhaps these will at least give the idea and prove [...]
Smaht Fahm (in pictures)
A little while ago, I got a handy dandy email telling me about a local event I might be interested in. An Alpaca Day. An Alpaca Day at a local farm. The Boy and I piled into the car, made a fortifying breakfast stop, and were on our way. We [...]
Cinderella’s More Practical Footwear
I'm not the glass slipper type. In fact, I'm not really the shoe type (and certainly not dressy shoes). I'm much more inclined towards soft, snuggly slippers. Soft, snuggly slippers, worn at home, while sipping tea, and in the company of a sleeping kitten if at all possible. That sounds [...]
Delias eucharis Knit Along
I’ll be having knit alongs for each of the pattern pairs in The Knitter’s Curiosity Cabinet, Volume II. This month we're starting the two patterns inspired by the Delias eucharis print. To start, we've got some delicious cabled socks (I loved them so much they had to go on the [...]
Stuffed
Labels are being applied and envelopes are being stuffed. The bench on the front porch is groaning under the weight of the books piled upon it (or maybe that's the postman groaning at the thought of all these books). But either way, the books are going out today. They should [...]
Arrival
Remember how I said this whole book launch thing is happening this week (instead of, say, next month) because the printer got the books done early? And so the books would be arriving at my house early...super duper early? Well this is what it looks like when the (rather overworked) [...]
Ne’er-Do-Well Knits
May I present Ne'er-Do-Well Knits: Make a Little Trouble. You guys have watched the patterns in this one come together over the last year or so, and you have not been shy about asking when they would be out (especially those cabled socks on the front, they seem to be [...]
Ne’er-Do-Well Knits preorder details
Two orders of business today. One is getting you all the details of the Ne'er-Do-Well Knits preorder so you can grab it tomorrow at the reduced price. But, first...and far more important, super adorable bonus kitten shot. That's from a little adventure we had this weekend, the details of which [...]
Unexpectedly Prompt
Every now and then, just to keep you on your toes, things happen off schedule. Things like the printer sending your book to you. Now usually...usually things get delayed and you have to bang your head against the wall and wail and wonder why the universe is taunting you. But [...]
Shrub, Part II
When last we left our bowls of fruit, they were dry and covered in a heavy coating of sugar. A day and a half on the counter, and they'd thrown off huge amounts of juice. Nearly unbelievable amounts of juice. Let's compare. Plums, yesterday: Plums today: Pears yesterday: Pears today: [...]
